Am I the only one super excited by the start of testing on February 1? What are we going to learn? Who is going to suck and who is going to show flashes of brilliance?
1 point for saying 'they could be running different fuel loads'
2 points for 'wow they are quick'
3 points for 'they are in trouble'
4 points for any comment on the cars 'being totally different between testing and the first race.'
5 points for 'testing times are irrelevant/unreliable'
The FIA and Ecclestone have been clamping down on testing lap times being made public. With only headline times we - the fans - learn next to nothing about how competitive the cars are.
The only thing that will really matter is whether the other engine manufacturers have reduced the huge power advantage of the Mercs. If not, the season will be no more competitive than last year was, no matter what the chassis builders do.
"Of course we are disappointed not to have completed more runs but we are happy with where we are in the program and the engineers back at base have plenty of data to work on"
